I guess you're going to have to put more Pride and Joy on the shelves.

Seriously, I'm sure it feels like you lost old friends.

Well, we got the new stuff.... all at one time.

About 6 pallets worth of new concentrated detergent stacked over 6 foot high came in tonight. It took me and our overnight support manager over 5 hours to get the shelves changed out and restocked (I dropped, she worked the new stuff up according to the layout).

The aisle looks better, but now it's gonna take me weeks to become familiar with all the new items. At least I won't have to hear all the customers bitching about losing their old favorites during the day....

I can see it with Downy and Febreeze, but Dawn is a stretch. I guess the mechanic's wives didn't like dumping Lestoil into the wash? Must be for reeeeeaaalllllly greasy clothes!

Hey! Tide with Folgers might improve the taste of Folgers! I like that coffee smell, too. Maybe on my clothes would keep me alert all day....

Maybe someone will secretly replace your regular detergent with Tide with Folgers crystals.

Sounds like a job for BILLY MAYS!

So let's ask the really important question. Are you going to lose some of your shelf space to another department? :shock:

I know how important defending our shelf space is to all the category sorters at the Friends of the Library booksale! :)

LOL

WalMart (sucks!)

Was that the bicycle people or was that Target?

And...... was that you or was that BiT?
I was one who was angry at Target (Sucks), BiT had the problem with the bike (that may have also been Target (Sucks). I don't have any problem with bikes, I just build them in my spare time.

If it were just me and mini (and about 15 different MM's), it would be understandable to have a 38 post detergent thread. But it seems like everyone else just had to join in....
